The School of Computer Science and Communication at KTH Royal Institute of 
Technology invites applications for 3 associate professor positions in

theoretical computer science conferences and journals worldwide, and the 
research conducted here has attracted numerous international awards and 
grants in recent years.

The associate professorships are permanent positions including both 
research and teaching at the undergraduate and master levels. Details 
regarding teaching load and support package for getting started with
